Well, the day is here. We just took a brief tour of the 3rd floor and your kids are ready for 5th Grade! Thank you so much to all of the kids and parents who have worked so hard this year!

Here is some advice from your future 5th Grade Teachers...

  • read, every day!
  • learn your multiplication facts. You need to know them "like THAT(snap)" 

Have a Fantabulous summer, Team 201. Stay in touch! Really!
